Cluster jewels for Saboteur Seismic Trapper

Hello everyone,

I would like to explore the option of using cluster jewels to improve damage / respect points on the tree / use passive points more efficiently.

However, as far as I am aware the only way to insert a cluster jewel as saboteur is on the right middle of the tree (next to 'Perfect Agony') where I basically have to waste 2 points on Projectile Damage.

Any ideas from you where I should start?

Edit: I am SSF so I don't have access to the high-end cluster jewels that might be on trade league.

Cluster Jewels can be very very powerful, and in general they are efficient ways to spend passive points. Going to poe.ninja, filtering by Seismic Trap on the left, and looking at the passive tree heatmap, we can see that it is very very common to go for 2 cluster jewel sockets. See here: https://poe.ninja/challenge/builds?skill=Seismic-Trap&sort=dps&heatmap

However, this is in trade league, where access to good clusters is better than in SSF. If we switch the search to SSF (https://poe.ninja/challengessf/builds?skill=Seismic-Trap&sort=dps&heatmap), it is much less common to go for 2 clusters, but 1 is still very common. Do note that if we sort by DPS, all of the top-damaging builds still use 2 clusters.

In general you should always look at the option of using clusters, even if you feel the travel nodes are inefficient. The notables that they provide are quite valuable, and of course they provide you with 2 normal jewel sockets, which are also very efficient.
